Hi There @rmass, there's a good chance that this is caused by a failing battery! Often as batteries get older their resistance increases, meaning that they lose more energy as heat as they power your phone. This could also be caused by other problems, such as a mild short on the phone's logic board, but this is far more uncommon. Hope this helps!
